To find the Gold Way in life
Is so hard.
Because your Body and your mind
Seem to exist apart.
Your Body changes through the time,
…Your mind - is constant.
As if the brake in any car
It's always stopping
Excessive passions,
And excessive moving,
Excess disturbing,
And excess of soothing...
--
Do not tighten the strings of your instrument too much, they will break.
Do not keep them too loose, or they will produce no sound-
The Buddha, when he heard this, felt it was said just for him.
Swami muktananda.
